Sinestro is a Green Lantern in both the video game sequel and Crisis on Infinite Earths: Paragons Rising. In the after credits scene of Green Lantern, he puts on a yellow ring. Either that scene takes place after Crisis or he decided to return to the green ring.

Anyways, I only made this now so I can do it later. I'm more focused on Earth-76 and the 90s Marvel cartoons. It won't be long till every canon DC universe has a timeline on this site, I reckon.

So apparently in not to much time Superman '41 and Birds of Prey will have a timeline too in this site when you finish Wonder Woman and Marvel Animated Universes from the 90's timelines, i'm right?

Check the scene where Hector Hammond checks his text messages.

It has a March date that lines up with 2010. Bump some of these back a year, if possible.

EDIT: It's right after the classroom scene where he gives a kid a brain aneurysm and he's testing his blood.
The phone reads "Mon, Mar 29" - Monday, March 29. Which is in 2010.

Earth-F or the DC Serials of the time?

I have the former on bluray plus all the latter, including the ones that you can't buy officially like Congo Bill, Hop Harrigan and The Vigilante.

Thanks! I'll probably change it to the Extended Cut at some point, once I get it.

You're welcome. Don't forget to bump back the other flashback years, also, because it's not subtracting from 2011 but 2010.
 
Also, don't forget Paralax's origin flashback.

And the level names you listed for the game are from the Nintendo DS version. Which tells the same story, but expanded + different gameplay.
 
I collect figures, books, games and comics about Green Lantern (2011), I can give you some infos about the Rise of the Manhunters comic and the PS3 game if you want.

**************************

For the Crisis on Infinite Earths event, it happens before the movie, not after.
The event continues to go in normal time even after its reboot, and if you look at Legends of Tomorrow S05E01, we see Hal leaving Earth, taken by his ring to Oa, meaning that the comic Paragons Rising happens before.

***************************

About the Movie Prequel comics, Abin Sur #1 and Sinestro #1 contradict each other: In Abin Sur #1, the story takes place 20 years before the movie (1990) and we can see Abin Sur talking with Sinestro.
But in Sinestro #1, the story takes place 13 years before the movie (1997), and Sinestro become a Green Lantern... So he can't be a Green Lantern in 1990.

**************************

I need to check back 'Constructing Green Lantern: From Page to Screen' and the Rise of the Manhunters comic if there are time markers in them.
I remember that the comic is just before the game.
 
The scene at the end of Crisis is a flashback using old footage, just like Swamp Thing, Titans, and Stargirl. They are not literally happening during that scene.

As for the comic, let's just pretend 20 = 10.
 
Ok, I didn't understand it that way, but both vision seems possible.

I've checked the Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters "Last Lantern Standing" comic.
The action takes place before Hal Jordan leaves Oa to return to Earth and before Sinestro and other GLs go to fight Parallax, maybe an hour or less after Hal's training with Tomar-Re, Kilowog and Sinestro.

Amon Sur just arrived to see the funeral of his father.
Hal Jordan is very not well received by other GLs who see humans as very primitive and dumb.
Oa is attacked by a Manhunter and Hal Jordan is the only GL who arrives to destroy it (the others are all surprised by the Yellow Energy and KOed).
The Guardians of the Universe thank Hal Jordan for his imagination and alter the security procedures to include Fear Energy detection.
GLs apologize for their behavior against Hal and ask him to join the ceremony of Abin Sur's funeral.
To be continued with Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters game.
 
I've just finished checking 'Constructing Green Lantern: From Page to Screen' and here are the time markers:

- There is a Coast City seal with 'Coast City, California, Incorporated 1857'
- Ferris Aircraft was founded 75 years ago.
- A badge worn by Ozzy Inguanzo, a Ferris UCAV technician, has the dates '12/10/01' (date issued) and '08/24/14' (expiration date).
- Flashback of Martin Jordan is indeed in 1993.
- An article of a newspaper in the bar indicates that Martin Jordan dies on February 18, 1982. (the year was changed later on post-production to 1993)
- Coast City College was established in 1848.

Next checking will be the novel :)
 
Can't wait for the Extended Cut update!

Edit: How do we know that the film spans 10 years?

Post-credits scene has Sinestro go yellow. In the Crisis on Infinite Earths tie-in comic, Sinestro is still green.

Ah ok. I don't personally count that (or any tie in comics) so I guess I'll place that final scene sometime after the main events in 2010.
